kasawae, Iburiella Jordan [D. S.] & Hubbs [C. L.] 1925:291, Pl. 11 (fig. 1) [Memoirs of the Carnegie Museum v. 10 (no. 2); ref. 2486] Tomakomai, near Mororan, Japan. Holotype: FMNH 58796 [ex CM 7906]. Paratypes: (1). Type catalog: Henn 1928:94 [ref. 12305], Böhlke 1953:133 [ref. 12291], Ibarra & Stewart 1987:49 [ref. 12367]. Named after Masunosuke Kawasa, but mistakenly spelled Kawaza in the dedication. Originally as kasawae; named after a man, but the correction to kasawai is not appropriate [Art. 31.1.1]. Bailey & Gruchy 1970:982, footnote [ref. 6508] did not need to emend the ending to ai. The spelling kasawai has not achieved the status of prevailing usage. We suggest regarding the original spelling as correct and use the name kasawae. This is a change from the recommendation in the 1998 printed version of the Catalog of Fishes based on an interpretation of the former Code. •Valid as Occella kazawai (Jordan & Hubbs 1925) -- (Bailey & Gruchy 1970:982 [ref. 6508]). •Valid as Occella kasawai (Jordan & Hubbs 1925) -- (Kanayama in Masuda et al. 1984:332 [ref. 6441], Lindberg & Krasyukova 1987:309 [ref. 15964], Kanayama 1991:106 [ref. 19261], Nakabo 2000:658 [ref. 25086], Nakabo 2002:658 [ref. 26001], Parin et al. 2002:S99 [ref. 28300], Sheiko & Mecklenburg 2004:17 [ref. 27591], Sheiko & Fedorov 2010:91 [ref. 38118], Parin et al. 2014:291 [ref. 33547]). •Valid as Occella kasawae (Jordan & Hubbs 1925) -- (Sheiko 1993:78 [ref. 21227], Dyldin & Orlov 2022:59 [ref. 38972]).
